Frequently Asked

Why is being both a broker and a state-certified appraiser unusual?

Most real estate professionals are licensed only as agents or brokers. A state-certified residential appraiser license requires separate coursework, a multi-year apprenticeship under a supervisory appraiser, completion of qualifying experience hours, and passing a state exam. Holding both credentials means I bring appraisal-grade valuation methodology to every listing strategy and buyer offer. It is rare in Northern New Jersey.
